In answer to this question the

should be able to do best that which
he wants to do. Often a young man
creates a dislike for the worK or

Wch will he published by The
Daily Nebraskan.
( (By Cliff F. Sanduhl)
'The word 'Lent,' itself, has no
religious significance," declared Rev.
Henry Erck, Lutheran student pas
tor, when asked "What is the mean
to' of Lent!" In an Interview Wed
nesday afternoon. "Etymologically,
rt comes from 'lengthen as in length

Students Will
Go to Party Via
Big Yellow Bus
(By Bill McCleery)
"I'm going out on a big bus Satur-;
day night!" declared some nice Uni
versity student. And that isn't a
misprint he was nice, and that
doesn't saybust. Maybe you haven't
noticed it, but a big yellow bus goes
by every sorority and fraternity
house and on out to the Ag college.
That's a solution of the problem of
how-get-the-date-to-the-valrsity-party.
Arch Eddy, now varsity dance
j chairman, has planned a "Spring
Frolic" for Saturday evening, 'lhis
dance will be held at the Student Ac
tivities building, reported to be the
best place in Lincoln for a University
dance. We never heard this report
before the varsity dance committee
got the building for the pre-summer
push-around, but it must be true.
But I Good Idea
This bus deal is a happy thought.
According to "Chuck" Bruce its a
long way out to the Ag College
"When I was a boy," remarked Mur
ray, "it was a good two-day drive
with horse and buggy." Of course
things have progressed considerably
since then, but its still quite a ways
out better take a bus. (We aren't
getting any commission we don't
even know how to spell it for sure.)
"The activities building will be
fine nice and cool," says Eloise
Keefer. It will probably snow for
the Spring Frolic. Pardon us for
getting to the "Inquiring Reporter's"
territory, but anything is excusable
in time of war or varsity dances.
Just a word of warning: be sure to
find out where the Activities build
ing is before you go out and get
kicked by a horse. You'll get walked
on plenty anyway.
'Fungi' Is Subject of
E. C. Stakman's Talk
Dr. Elvin Charles Stakman, head
of the department of plant pathology
at the University of Minnesota, de
livered an address in Bessey Hall
Tuesday evening on the suoject or
"Physiological Specialization of
Fungi."
Experiments covering a period of
about ten years have proven to Dr.
Stakman that many fungi differ in
behavior but not in form. He has
succeeded in presenting some fifty
one or fifty-two different forms of
wheat rust. A recounting and pre
sentation of conclusions of these ex
periments took up the major part of
Dr. Stakman's lecture.

Gridiron Skill
Will Decide Who
Is To Keep Bell
(By Don Carlson)
"The hand that cranks a Delt
Ford shall never toll the bell" is the
new slogan adopted by the Phi Delts.
For is it not true that the coveted
bell which ding-donged merrily from
the tower of the some country church
or school-house (it doesn't matter
anyway) is now in the proud posses
sion of the Phi Delts?
According to information secured
from Dame Rumor, the Delts and the
Phi Delts know they aren't quarrel
ling over the famous "U" hall bell,
but it's so much fun making believe !
Football has ceased to be but a na
tional past-time, and has reached the
stage where it might be considered
means of arbitration, as the bell shall
go to the winners of the annual foot
ball game.

From the latest gossip given out

WORK PROGRESSES
ON ANDREWS HALL
Workmen Are Putting in Partition
Walls on Third Floor; Are
Ahead of Schedule
With warmer weather and a large
number of workmen engaged in
brick-laying, construction activities
on Andrews Hall have progressed
rapidly in the past few days. Brick
layers are busy putting in the parti
tion walls on the third floor of the
building, while the exterior walls are
being extended to permit the placing
of the window casings.
The Bedford stone trimmings will
extend to the cornice and with the
addition of a few more sections on
each fluted column, will have reached
their full height.
Rrifttnhles Social Sciences
The class room partitions on the
first floor have been started and one
can see something of the general lay
our and room arrangement. It cor
responds to that in Social Sciences.
Contracts for the heating and plumb
ing fixtures and wiring have been
let, and fixtures are being installed
as rapidly as the general construc
tion will permit.
Last week-end, after the concrete
had been poured for the third floor,
the weather turned cold and neces
sitated fires being built on the sec
ond floor to drive off freezing tem
perature which would not allow the
cement to set. With warmer weath
er assured from now on work will
progress rapidly, according to the
contractors. Workmen are ahead
of the contract by several weeks now.
Concrete was being poured yester
day for the section of the heat tunnel
extending toward the south. The
tunnel is constructed of reinforced
concrete nine inches thick. It will
join the section extending from An
drews Hall.
